Does anyone know if there is an advantage to registering a KF as an experimental that meets all the requirements of Light Sport Airplane? Many years ago someone from the EAA told me to register my first KF as an experimental that meets LSA parameters (as in the J3). However, I had an 0200 on it with 1550 spars so I didn't make it LSA compliant.

Is there any advantage one way or another. Reading about the insurance in that thread got me to thinking about this again since I do have a PP license, I believe that I can fly it as a LSA without having to get a medical again but I wonder about the advantages versus disadvantages either way.
